Item 1.       Business.

General Development of Business.

         Phoenix Leasing Cash  Distribution  Fund V, L.P., a California  limited
partnership (the "Partnership"),  was organized on July 9, 1990. The Partnership
was registered  with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission  with an effective
date of November 4, 1991 and shall  continue  to operate  until its  termination
date unless dissolved sooner due to the sale of substantially  all of the assets
of the  Partnership  or a vote of the Limited  Partners.  The  Partnership  will
terminate  on December  31, 2003.  The General  Partner is a California  limited
partnership, Phoenix Leasing Associates II L.P., the general partner of which is
Phoenix  Leasing  Associates II, Inc., a Nevada  corporation  and a wholly-owned
subsidiary  of Phoenix  Leasing  Incorporated,  a  California  corporation.  The
General  Partner  or its  affiliates  also is or has been a general  partner  in
several other  limited  partnerships  formed to invest in capital  equipment and
other assets.

         The  registration  was  for  5,000,000  units  of  limited  partnership
interest  at a price of $20 per  unit.  The  Partnership  completed  its  public
offering on October 28,  1993.  As of December 31, 1993,  the  Partnership  sold
2,045,838  units for a total  capitalization  of  $40,916,760.  Of the  proceeds
received  through the  offering,  the  Partnership  has incurred  $6,131,000  in
organizational and offering expenses for a net capitalization of $34.8 million.

         From the initial  formation  of the  Partnership  through  December 31,
1996, the total investments in equipment  leases,  investments in joint ventures
and financing transactions (loans) approximate $87,160,000.  The average initial
firm term of  contractual  payments  from  equipment  subject to lease was 46.75
months,  and the average initial net monthly payment rate as a percentage of the
original  purchase price was 2.70%. The average initial firm term of contractual
payments from loans was 51.09 months.

         The  Partnership's  principal  objective is to produce cash flow to the
investors on a  continuing  basis over the life of the  Partnership.  To achieve
this  objective,  the  Partnership  will  invest  in  various  types of  capital
equipment and other assets to provide  leasing or financing of the same to third
parties, including Fortune 1000 companies and their subsidiaries,  middle-market
companies,  emerging growth  companies,  franchised  businesses,  pay television
system  operators  and others,  on either a long-term or short-term  basis.  The
types of equipment that the Partnership will invest in will include,  but is not
limited  to,  computer  peripherals,  small  computer  systems,   communications
equipment, IBM mainframes,  IBM-software compatible mainframes,  office systems,
CAE/CAD/CAM equipment, telecommunications equipment, cable television equipment,
medical equipment, production and manufacturing equipment and software products.
At least 75% of the net offering proceeds has been allocated for the acquisition
of computer peripherals.

         The Partnership has acquired significant amounts of equipment or assets
with the net  offering  proceeds.  In  addition,  the  Partnership  has acquired
equipment  through  the  use  of  debt  financing,  however,  the  ratio  of the
outstanding debt to net capital  contributions  less any investment in Leveraged
Joint Ventures at the end of the  Partnership's  offering period will not exceed
one-to-one.  The cash flow generated by such  investments in equipment leases or
financing transactions will be used to provide for debt service, to provide cash
distributions  to the Partners and the  remainder  will be reinvested in capital
equipment or other assets.

Narrative Description of Business.

         The Partnership has acquired and intends to acquire and lease equipment
pursuant to either  "Operating"  leases or "Financing"  leases.  At December 31,
1996, approximately 95% of the equipment owned by the Partnership was classified
as Financing  leases.  The  Partnership has also provided and intends to provide
financing  secured by assets in the form of notes  receivable.  Operating leases
are generally  short-term  leases under which the lessor will receive  aggregate
rental  payments  in an  amount  that is less  than  the  purchase  price of the
equipment.  Financing  leases are  generally  for a longer  term under which the
noncancellable  rental  payments due during the initial term of the lease are at
least  sufficient  to  recover  the  purchase  price  of  the  equipment.  It is
anticipated  that a  significant  portion of the net  offering  proceeds  to the
Partnership will be invested in capital equipment subject to Operating leases.

         Operating  leases  represent  a  greater  risk  along  with  a  greater
potential  return  to the  Partnership  than do  Financing  leases.  In order to
recover its investment in equipment  leased pursuant to an Operating  lease, the
Partnership  will,  upon  termination  of such  lease,  either  have to obtain a
renewal from the original lessee,  find a new lessee or sell the equipment.  The
terms for Operating  leases are for a shorter  duration than  Financing  leases.
Consequently, the revenues derived from the initial term of Operating leases are
generally  greater  than  those  of  Financing  leases.  Due  to  technological,
competitive,  market and economic  factors,  it is anticipated  that renewals or
<PAGE>


                                                                    Page 4 of 28

remarkets  of leases  will be at a lower  rental  rate than that of the  initial
lease terms.

         In addition to  acquiring  equipment  for lease to third  parties,  the
Partnership,  either directly or through the investment in joint  ventures,  has
provided  financing  to certain  emerging  growth  companies,  cable  television
operators,  manufacturers  and their  lessees  with  respect  to  assets  leased
directly by such  manufacturers  to third parties.  The Partnership  maintains a
security  interest in the assets  financed and in the  receivables due under any
lease or rental  agreement  relating to such  assets.  Such  security  interests
constitute a lien on the equipment and will give the Partnership the right, upon
default, to obtain possession of the assets.

         Competition.   The  General   Partner   intends  to   concentrate   the
Partnership's  activities in the equipment  leasing and financing  industry,  an
area in which the General  Partner has  developed  an  expertise.  The  computer
equipment leasing industry is extremely  competitive.  The Partnership  competes
with many well established  companies  having  substantially  greater  financial
resources.  Competitive  factors include pricing,  technological  innovation and
methods  of  financing  (including  use  of  various  short-term  and  long-term
financing plans, as well as the outright purchase of equipment).  Generally, the
impact of these factors to the Partnership would be the realization of increased
equipment  remarketing and storage costs,  as well as lower  residuals  received
from the sale or remarketing of such equipment.

Other.

         A brief  description of the type of assets in which the Partnership has
invested  through December 31, 1996,  together with  information  concerning the
uses of assets is set forth in Item 2.

Item 2.       Properties.

         The  Partnership  is engaged in the  equipment  leasing  and  financing
industry and as such,  does not own or operate any  principal  plants,  mines or
real property. The primary assets held by the Partnership are its investments in
leases and loans either directly or through its investment in joint ventures.

         As of  December  31,  1996,  the  Partnership  owns  equipment  and has
outstanding  loans to borrowers with an aggregate  original cost of $50,392,000.
The  equipment  and loans have been made to  customers  located  throughout  the
United States.  The following  table  summarizes the type of equipment  owned or
financed by the Partnership,  including its pro rata interest in joint ventures,
at December 31, 1996.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations.

Results of Operations

         Phoenix  Leasing  Cash  Distribution  Fund V,  L.P.  (the  Partnership)
reported net income of $2,158,000, $340,000 and $2,610,000 during the year ended
December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The increase in earnings for the
year ended December 31, 1996, compared to 1995, is attributable to a decrease in
total expenses,  primarily  depreciation expense,  which exceeded the decline in
total revenues. The decrease in net income during 1995, as compared to 1994, was
due  to a  decrease  in  rental  income  without  a  corresponding  decrease  in
depreciation expense.

         Total revenues  decreased for both the year ended December 31, 1996 and
1995. The decrease in total  revenues of $2,366,000  and $2,950,000  during 1996
and 1995, respectively, as compared to the previous year, is due to decreases in
rental income and earned  income from  financing  leases.  The decline in rental
income of $2,012,000  and  $2,831,000  for the year ended  December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively, compared to the previous year, is a result of a reduction in
the amount of equipment  owned by the  Partnership.  At December  31, 1996,  the
Partnership  owned  equipment with an aggregate  original cost of $40.8 million,
compared  to $50.5  million  and $57.4  million at  December  31, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.  During  1995 and 1996,  many of the  initial  lease  terms of the
Partnership's  equipment  expired.  As a result, the Partnership has renewed the
leases with the current lessee,  remarketed the equipment to new lessees or sold
the  equipment.  The effect has been a reduction of the  Partnership's  earnings
during this  remarketing  period.  Total revenues were $7.4 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996, compared to $9.7 million for 1995 and $12.7 million for
1994.

         The  decrease in earned  income from  financing  leases of $497,000 and
$362,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,  respectively,  compared
to the prior year, is a result of a decline in the  Partnership's  investment in
financing  leases. At December 31, 1996, the Partnership had a net investment in
financing  leases of $15.1 million,  compared to $19.9 million and $23.5 million
at December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The investment in financing leases,
as well as earned  income from  financing  leases,  will decrease over the lease
term as the  Partnership  amortizes  income over the life of the lease using the
interest method. This decrease will be offset in part by a continuous investment
of the  excess  cash  flows of the  Partnership  in new  leasing  and  financing
transactions over the life of the Partnership.

         The decline in rental  income and earned income from  financing  leases
for the year ended  December 31, 1996,  compared to 1995, is in part offset by a
gain on sale of securities of $390,000.  The securities sold consisted of common
stock and warrants for the purchase of common stock  granted to the  Partnership
as part of financing agreements with emerging growth companies that are publicly
traded.  The  Partnership  received  proceeds of $403,000 from the sale of these
securities during the year ended December 31, 1996. In addition, at December 31,
1996, the Partnership had remaining  interests in stock warrants with unrealized
gains  of   approximately   $369,000.   These  stock  warrants  contain  certain
restrictions, but are generally exercisable within one year.

         Total expenses  decreased by $4,184,000 for the year ended December 31,
1996,  compared to the prior year.  The  decrease  in total  expenses  for 1996,
compared to 1995,  is primarily  due to a reduction in  depreciation  expense of
$3,757,000.  The decrease in  depreciation  expense is  attributable  to a large
portion of the Partnership's  equipment portfolio having been fully depreciated.
Additionally,  depreciation  was  higher  during  1995  due to  the  Partnership
providing additional  depreciation on various leases that had come to the end of
their  initial term,  where the estimated  fair market value was not expected to
exceed the net book value of such leases.

         Partially  offsetting the decrease in depreciation expense for the year
ended December 31, 1996, compared to the prior year, is an increase in provision
for losses on receivables of $273,000.  During the year ended December 31, 1995,
the Partnership  received a settlement payment on an outstanding note receivable
from a cable  television  system operator of $1,269,000 that had been classified
as  impaired.  The  settlement  was for an amount in excess of the net  carrying
value of the  note.  As a  result,  the  Partnership  recognized  as  income,  a
reduction to the allowance for doubtful notes  receivable of $284,000 related to
this note. Such a transaction did not occur during 1996.

         The small  decrease in total  expenses  of $680,000  for the year ended
December  31,  1995,  compared  to 1994,  was due to a decrease  of  $390,000 in
interest  expense  and a decrease of  $367,000  in the  provision  for losses on
receivables,  as previously  discussed.  The decrease in interest expense during
1995,  as  compared  to  1994,  was  due to the  decrease  in the  Partnership's
outstanding  notes  payable.  At December 31,  1995,  the  Partnership  reported
outstanding notes payable of $3,594,000,  as compared to $11,243,000 at December
31, 1994. The Partnership's  notes payable were paid off in full during the year
ended  December 31, 1996,  and as a result  interest  expense for the year ended

December 31, 1996, compared to 1995, also experienced a decrease.

         Inflation  affects the  Partnership  in relation to the current cost of
equipment  placed on lease and the residual  values  realized when the equipment
comes  off-lease and is sold.  During the last several years  inflation has been
low, thereby having very little impact upon the investments of the Partnership.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The  Partnership's  primary source of liquidity comes from  contractual
obligations with lessees and borrowers for fixed terms at fixed payment amounts.
The future  liquidity of the  Partnership  is dependent  upon the payment of the
Partnership's  contractual  obligations  from its lessees and borrowers.  As the
initial lease terms of the Partnership's short term operating leases expire, the
Partnership  will  re-lease or sell the equipment as it becomes  available.  The
future  liquidity of the  Partnership in excess of the  contractual  obligations
will depend upon the General  Partner's  success in  re-leasing  and selling the
Partnership's equipment when the lease terms expire.

         The cash  generated  from leasing and financing  activities  during the
year ended December 31, 1996 was $13,665,000,  as compared to $15,542,000 during
the year ended December 31, 1995 and $16,973,000  during the year ended December
31, 1994.  These  proceeds,  combined  with the cash on hand,  were used for the
repayment of debt and for the payment of cash  distributions to the partners for
1996,  1995 and 1994.  During the year ended December 31, 1996, the  Partnership
paid off its  outstanding  debt of  $3,594,000,  as  compared to  repayments  of
$7,649,000 during 1995 and $6,603,000 during 1994.

         The  Partnership  will  continue  to  reinvest  the cash  generated  by
operating  and financing  activities  in new leasing and financing  transactions
over the life of the  Partnership.  During the year ended December 31, 1996, the
Partnership  invested  $4,421,000  in equipment  leases and  $2,676,000 in notes
receivable,  as compared to  investments  of $4,862,000 in equipment  leases and
$892,000 in notes receivable in 1995, and investments of $9,600,000 in equipment
leases and $721,000 in notes receivable in 1994.

         As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership owned equipment being held for
lease with an  original  cost of  $3,945,000  and a net book value of  $278,000,
compared to  $3,516,000  and  $714,000,  respectively,  at December 31, 1995 and
$4,416,000  and  $1,497,000,  respectively,  at December 31,  1994.  The General
Partner is actively  engaged,  on behalf of the Partnership,  in remarketing and
selling the Partnership's equipment as it becomes available.

         The cash  distributed  to partners for the year ended December 31, 1996
was $4,064,000,  as compared to $4,157,000 and $4,198,000  during the year ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994,  respectively.  In accordance  with the  Partnership
Agreement,  the limited  partners are entitled to 97% of the cash  available for
distribution and the General Partner is entitled to 3%. As a result, the limited
partners received $3,941,000,  $4,032,000 and $4,072,000 in distributions during
the year ended December 31, 1996,  1995 and 1994,  respectively.  The cumulative
distributions  to  the  Limited   Partners  are  $16,349,000,   $12,408,000  and
$8,376,000  as of December 31, 1996,  1995 and 1994,  respectively.  The General
Partner received  $123,000,  $125,000 and $126,000 in cash distributions for the
year ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Partnership plans
to make quarterly  distributions to partners during 1997 at the same rate as the
current distributions.

         The cash to be  generated  from  leasing and  financing  operations  is
anticipated to be sufficient to meet the  Partnership's  continuing  operational
expenses and distributions.

                 PHOENIX LEASING CASH DISTRIBUTION FUND V, L.P.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                DECEMBER 31, 1996

Note 1.       Organization and Partnership Matters.

         Phoenix Leasing Cash  Distribution  Fund V, L.P., a California  limited
partnership  (the  "Partnership"),  was  formed  on July 9,  1990,  to invest in
capital  equipment of various types and to lease such equipment to third parties
on either a long-term or short-term  basis, and to provide financing to emerging
growth  companies and cable  television  system  operators.  The Partnership met
minimum   investment   requirements  on  January  7,  1992.  The   Partnership's
termination date is December 31, 2003.

         The  Partnership  has also  made  investments  in joint  ventures  with
affiliated  partnerships  managed  by the  General  Partner  for the  purpose of
reducing the risks of financing or acquiring certain capital equipment leased to
third parties (see Note 6).

         For financial reporting purposes, Partnership net income and net losses
will be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner.  In
addition, the General Partner will be allocated gross rental and interest income
in amounts equal to the  distributions  that it receives  from the  Partnership.
Syndication  costs will be  allocated  1% to the General  Partner and 99% to the
Limited Partners.

         The  General  Partner is  entitled  to receive 3% of all  distributions
until the Limited  Partners have recovered their initial  capital  contributions
plus a cumulative return of 10% per annum. Thereafter,  the General Partner will
receive 15% of all cash  distributions.  From inception of the Partnership until
September  30,  1998,  the  General  Partner's  interest in Cash  Available  for
Distribution is subordinated in any calendar  quarter until the Limited Partners
receive quarterly  distributions  equal to 2.50% of their capital  contributions
(i.e., 10% per annum), prorated for any partial period.

         In the event the General  Partner has a deficit  balance in its capital
account  at the  time  of  Partnership  liquidation,  it  will  be  required  to
contribute the amount of such deficit to the Partnership.

         As compensation for management services, the General Partner receives a
fee, payable quarterly, subject to certain limitations, in an amount equal to 3%
of the  Partnership's  gross revenues for the quarter from which such payment is
being made,  which  revenues  shall  include,  but are not  limited  to,  rental
receipts,  maintenance  fees,  proceeds  from the sale of equipment and interest
income.

         The General  Partner  will be  compensated  for  services  performed in
connection  with the  analysis  of  assets  available  to the  Partnership,  the
selection  of such  assets  and the  acquisition  thereof,  including  obtaining
lessees for the equipment,  negotiating and concluding  master lease  agreements
with certain lessees. As compensation for such acquisition services, the General
Partner will receive a fee equal to 3%, subject to certain  limitations,  of (a)
the purchase price of equipment  acquired by the Partnership or equipment leased
to  customers  by  manufacturers,  the  financing  for which is  provided by the
Partnership,  or (b) financing  provided to businesses such as cable  operators,
emerging growth companies, or security monitoring system companies, payable upon
such  acquisition  or  financing,  as the  case  may be.  Acquisition  fees  are
amortized over the life of the assets principally on a straight-line basis.

Note 2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

       Leasing Operations.  The Partnership's leasing operations consist of both
financing and operating  leases.  The financing  method of accounting for leases
records as  unearned  income at the  inception  of the lease,  the excess of net
rentals  receivable  and estimated  residual value at the end of the lease term,
over the cost of equipment leased. Unearned income is credited to income monthly
over the term of the lease on a declining basis to provide an approximate  level
rate of return on the unrecovered  cost of the investment.  Initial direct costs
of  consummating  new  leases  are  capitalized  and  included  in the  cost  of
equipment.  The  Partnership  reviews its  estimates of residual  value at least
annually.  If a decline in value has occurred which is other than  temporary,  a
reduction in the investment is recognized currently.

         Under the  operating  method  of  accounting  for  leases,  the  leased
equipment  is recorded as an asset at cost and  depreciated.  The  Partnership's
leased  equipment is depreciated  primarily  using an  accelerated  depreciation
method over the estimated useful life of six years.

         The  Partnership's  policy  is to  review  periodically  the  remaining
expected  economic  life of its  rental  equipment  in  order to  determine  the
probability of recovering its  undepreciated  cost. Such reviews address,  among
other  things,  recent  and  anticipated  technological  developments  affecting
computer  equipment and  competitive  factors  within the computer  marketplace.
Although  remarketing  rental  rates are  expected to decline in the future with
respect to some of the Partnership's rental equipment, such rentals are expected
to exceed  projected  expenses,  including  depreciation.  Where  reviews of the
equipment  portfolio  indicate that rentals plus anticipated sales proceeds will
not  exceed  expenses  in  any  future  period,  the  Partnership   revises  its
depreciation policy and will provide additional depreciation as appropriate.  As
a  result  of  such  periodic  reviews,   the  Partnership  provided  additional
depreciation expense of $758,000,  $2,147,000 and $114,000 ($.39, $1.07 and $.06
per limited  partnership  unit) for the years ended December 31, 1996,  1995 and
1994, respectively.

         Rental  income  for the  year is  determined  on the  basis  of  rental
payments due for the period under the terms of the lease.  Maintenance,  repairs
and minor renewals of the leased equipment are charged to expense.

         Investments in Joint  Ventures.  Minority  investments in net assets of
the equipment and financing  joint  ventures  reflect the  Partnership's  equity
basis in the  ventures.  Under the equity  method of  accounting,  the  original
investment  is recorded at cost and is adjusted  periodically  to recognize  the
Partnership's   share  of  earnings,   losses,   cash   contributions  and  cash
distributions after the date of acquisition.

         Investment  in  Available-for-Sale   Securities.  The  Partnership  has
investments  in  stock  warrants  in  public  companies.   The  Partnership  has
classified its investments in stock warrants as available-for-sale in accordance
with FASB  Statement No. 115,  "Accounting  for Certain  Investments in Debt and
Equity  Securities."  Available-for-  sale  securities  are stated at their fair
market value, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate  component
of partners' capital. The stock warrants held by the Partnership were granted by
certain lessees or borrowers as additional compensation for leasing or financing
equipment.  At the date of grant,  such warrants were determined to have no fair
market value and were recorded at their historical cost of $0.

         Notes  Receivable.  Notes  receivable generally  are  stated  at  their
outstanding unpaid principal balances, which includes accrued interest. Interest
income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.

         Impaired Notes Receivable.  Generally,  notes receivable are classified
as impaired and the accrual of interest on such notes is  discontinued  when the
contractual  payment of  principal  or  interest  has become 90 days past due or
management has serious doubts about further  collectibility  of the  contractual
payments,  even  though  the  loan  may  currently  be  performing.  When a note
receivable is classified as impaired,  income  recognition is discontinued.  Any
payments  received  subsequent  to the  placement of the note  receivable  on to

<PAGE>


                                                                   Page 16 of 28

impaired  status  will  generally  be  applied  towards  the  reduction  of  the
outstanding  note  receivable  balance,  which may  include  previously  accrued
interest as well as principal.  Once the principal and accrued  interest balance
has been reduced

to zero, the remaining  payments will be applied to interest income.  Generally,
notes  receivable  are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought
current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable
period  of  time  and  the  ultimate  collectibility  of the  total  contractual
principal and interest is no longer in doubt.

         Allowance for Losses.  An allowance for losses is  established  through
provisions for losses charged  against  income.  Notes  receivable  deemed to be
uncollectible  are charged  against the  allowance  for losses,  and  subsequent
recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

         Reclassification.  Certain 1995 and 1994 amounts have been reclassified
to conform to the 1996 presentation.

         Non-Cash  Investing  Activities.  During the quarter ended December 31,
1996, the Partnership acquired 5,143 shares of common stock valued at $90,000 as
a result of an exercise of a stock warrant option.

         During the year  ended  December  31,  1996 and 1995,  the  Partnership
recorded an  unrealized  loss on  available-for-sale  securities  which has been
included in Other Assets, of $119,000 and a gain of $488,000, respectively.

         Cash and Cash Equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents  include deposits
at banks,  investments in money market funds and other highly liquid  short-term
investments  with  original  maturities  of less than 90 days.  The  Partnership
places its cash deposits in temporary cash investments with credit worthy,  high
quality  financial  institutions.  The  concentration  of such cash deposits and
temporary  cash  investments  is not deemed to create a significant  risk to the
Partnership.

         Credit  and  Collateral.   The   Partnership's   activities  have  been
concentrated  in  the  equipment  leasing  and  financing  industry.   A  credit
evaluation  is performed  by the General  Partner for all leases and loans made,
with  the  collateral  requirements  determined  on a  case-by-case  basis.  The
Partnership's  loans are generally  secured by the equipment or assets  financed
and, in some cases,  other collateral of the borrower.  In the event of default,
the  Partnership  has the right to foreclose upon the collateral  used to secure
such loans.

         Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that affect the amounts  reported in the  financial
statements  and  accompanying  notes.  Actual  results  could  differ from those
estimates.

         The Partnership received a settlement on a note receivable from a cable
television  system  operator  during the year ended December 31, 1995. This note
receivable was impaired. The Partnership received $1,269,000 as a settlement for
this note receivable of which $800,000 was applied towards the outstanding  note
receivable  balance and the remaining  $469,000 applied towards interest income.
There was an allowance for losses on notes  receivable of $284,000 for this note
receivable.  Because the settlement  exceeded the net carrying value of the note
receivable, this allowance was reversed and recognized as income in 1995.

         At December 31, 1996 and 1995,  there were no recorded  investments  in
notes that were considered to be impaired.  The average  recorded  investment in
impaired  loans  during the year ended  December  31,  1996 and 1995 were $0 and
$684,000,  respectively.  The Partnership recognized $470,000 in interest income
from impaired notes during the year ended December 31, 1995.

         The activity in the allowance for losses on notes receivable during the
years ended December 31, is as follows:

Note 5.    Equipment on Operating Leases and Investment in Financing Leases.

         Equipment on lease consists primarily of computer peripheral  equipment
and other capital equipment.

         The  Partnership's  operating  leases are for  initial  lease  terms of
approximately 19 to 36 months.  During the remaining terms of existing operating
leases,  the  Partnership  will not  recover all of the  undepreciated  cost and
related expenses of its rental equipment,  and therefore must remarket a portion
of its equipment in future years.

         The  Partnership has also entered into direct lease  arrangements  with
businesses  in  different  industries  located  throughout  the  United  States.
Generally,  it is the  responsibility  of the lessee to provide  maintenance  on
leased  equipment.  The General Partner  administers the equipment  portfolio of
leases acquired through the direct leasing program.  Administration includes the
collection of rents from the lessees and remarketing of the equipment.

Note 6.    Investment in Joint Ventures.

Equipment Joint Venture.

         On August 1, 1994, the Partnership entered into an agreement along with
two other affiliated  partnerships to contribute certain leased assets and notes
receivable (the "Assets") to Phoenix  Acceptance  Limited Liability  Company,  a
Delaware  limited  liability  company  (the "Joint  Venture")  in exchange for a
32.48% equity interest in the Joint Venture.  The interest received in the Joint
Venture  was  accounted  for  at  the  historical   cost  basis  of  the  Assets
transferred.  The Partnership has accounted for its net investment in this Joint
Venture using the equity method of  accounting.  The Joint Venture was organized
to hold title to the assets and subsequently transfer such assets to a trust for
the purpose of the trust  issuing two classes of lease  backed  certificates  to
third parties in exchange for cash proceeds.  The transaction  between the Joint
Venture and the trust has been  accounted for as a financing.  The Joint Venture
retains a residual interest in the assets transferred through the ownership of a
third class of subordinated trust  certificates.  The lease backed  certificates
are recourse only to the assets used to collateralize the obligation.

         The net carrying value of such assets contributed by the Partnership to
the Joint Venture was approximately $7.9 million and the total carrying value of
all of the  assets  contributed  by all three  partnerships  approximated  $24.7
million. The net proceeds from the issuance of the lease backed certificates are
being distributed back to the partnerships who contributed to the Joint Venture.
On August 5, 1994, the Joint Venture received  proceeds from the issuance of the
7.1% Class A lease backed certificates in the principal amount of $18.5 million.
On August 12, 1994, the Joint Venture received proceeds from the issuance of the
8.25% Class B lease backed certificates in the principal amount of $5.3 million.
In November 1996, the lease backed certificates were paid in full.

         The Manager of the Joint Venture is Phoenix Leasing  Incorporated.  The
manager is responsible  for the daily  management of the operations of the Joint
Venture. Phoenix Leasing Incorporated also acts as Servicer and Administrator to
the  trust.  As  Servicer,  Phoenix  Leasing  Incorporated  is  responsible  for
servicing,  managing and  administering  the Assets,  as well as  enforcing  and
making collections on the Assets.

         The Equipment  Joint Venture owned by the  Partnership,  along with its
percentage of ownership is as follows:

Note 9.       Income Taxes.

         Federal  and state  income tax  regulations  provide  that taxes on the
income  or loss of the  Partnership  are  reportable  by the  partners  in their
individual income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes has been
made in the accompanying financial statements.

         The net differences  between the tax basis and the reported  amounts of
the Partnership's assets and liabilities are as follows at December 31:

Note 10.      Related Entities.

         Affiliates  of the  General  Partner  serve in the  capacity of general
partners  in other  partnerships,  all of which  are  engaged  in the  equipment
leasing and financing business.


Note 11.      Net Income (Loss) and Distributions per Limited Partnership Unit.

         Net income and distributions per limited partnership unit were based on
the Limited  Partner's share of net income and  distributions,  and the weighted
average number of units  outstanding  of 1,968,615,  2,014,723 and 2,035,084 for
the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. For the purposes
of  allocating  income  (loss)  and  distributions  to each  individual  Limited
Partner,  the Partnership  allocates net income (loss) and  distributions  based
upon each respective Limited Partner's net capital contributions.


Note 12.      Reimbursed Costs to the General Partner and Affiliates.

         The General Partner and affiliates incur certain  administrative  costs
such  as  data   processing,   investor   and   lessee   communications,   lease
administration,  accounting,  equipment storage and equipment  remarketing,  for
which it is  reimbursed  by the  Partnership.  These  expenses  incurred  by the
General  Partner and  affiliates are to be reimbursed at the lower of the actual
costs or an amount equal to 90% of the fair market value for such services.

         The  reimbursed  administrative  costs  to  the  General  Partner  were
$370,000,  $434,000 and $380,000 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively. The equipment storage, remarketing and data processing costs
reimbursed to the General Partner during the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995
and 1994 were $200,000, $251,000 and $105,000, respectively.

         In  addition,  the General  Partner  receives a  management  fee and an
acquisition fee (see Note 1).


Note 13.      Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

         The following  methods and  assumptions  were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial  instrument which it is practicable to estimate
that value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because
of the short maturity of these instruments.

Notes Receivable
The fair value of notes  receivable  is  estimated by  discounting  the expected
future cash flows using the current  rates at which  similar loans would be made
to borrowers with similar credit ratings.

Securities, Available-for-Sale
The fair values of  investments  in available for sale  securities are estimated
based on quoted market prices.

Notes Payable
The  carrying   amount  of  the   Partnership's   variable  rate  notes  payable
approximates fair value.

The estimated  fair values of the  Partnership's  financial  instruments  are as
follows at December 31:

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Partners of
Phoenix Leasing Associates II L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Phoenix Leasing Associates II
L.P. (a  California  limited  partnership)  as of June 30, 1996 and 1995.  These
balance  sheets are the  responsibility  of the  Partnership's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these  balance  sheets  based on our
audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  balance  sheets are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the  amounts  and  disclosures  in the balance  sheets.  An audit also  includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall  balance sheet  presentation.  We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the balance  sheets  referred to above present  fairly,  in all
material respects,  the financial position of Phoenix Leasing Associates II L.P.
as of June 30, 1996 and 1995, in conformity with generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

                           NOTES TO THE BALANCE SHEETS

                                  JUNE 30, 1996


Note 1.       Organization:

     Phoenix Leasing Associates II L.P., a California  limited  partnership (the
Partnership), was formed under the laws of the State of California on August 17,
1990, to act as the general partner of Phoenix Leasing Cash Distribution Fund V,
L.P. (CDF V), a California limited  partnership.  The Partnership's  fiscal year
ends on June 30 of each year. The general  partner of the Partnership is Phoenix
Leasing  Associates II, Inc.  (PLAII),  a Nevada  corporation  and  wholly-owned
subsidiary of Phoenix Leasing Incorporated (PLI), a California corporation.  The
limited  partner of the  partnership  is Lease  Management  Associates,  Inc., a
Nevada  corporation  controlled  by an officer of PLAII,  who owns the  ultimate
parent of PLAII.

     The Partnership  records its investment in CDF V under the equity method of
accounting.  As general partner,  the Partnership has complete authority in, and
responsibility  for, the overall management and control of CDF V, which includes
responsibility  for supervising CDF V's  acquisition,  leasing,  remarketing and
sale of equipment.

Note 2.       Income Taxes:

     The  Partnership  is not subject to federal and state  income  taxes on its
income.  Federal and state income tax regulations  provide that items of income,
gain,  loss  and  deductions,  credits  and  tax  preference  items  of  limited
partnerships  are  reportable  by the  individual  partners in their  respective
income tax returns.  Accordingly,  no liability for such taxes has been recorded
on the Partnership's balance sheets.

Note 3.       Use of Estimates:

     The  preparation  of balance sheets in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the balance  sheets.  Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Note 4.       Compensation and Fees:

     The  Partnership  receives  acquisition  fees equal to three percent of the
purchase  price of assets  acquired or financed by CDF V in connection  with the
analysis,  selection and acquisition or financing of assets,  and the continuing
analysis of the overall  portfolio of CDF V's assets,  and management fees equal
to three  percent of CDF V's gross  revenues in  connection  with  managing  the
operations of CDF V. In addition,  the  Partnership  receives an interest in CDF
V's profits,  losses and  distributions.  Management fees of $76,521 and $38,238
and  acquisition  fees of $309 and $25,378 are  included in Due from CDF V as of
June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Note 5.       Allocation of Profits, Losses and Distributions:

     Profits and losses attributable to acquisition fees paid to the Partnership
by  CDF V are  allocated  to the  partners  in  proportion  to  their  ownership
interests.  All other profits and losses are  allocated to PLAII.  Distributions
are made in accordance with the terms of the partnership agreement.

Note 6.       Related Parties:

     Phoenix Securities,  Inc., an affiliate of the Partnership,  receives a fee
for  wholesaling  activities  performed in  connection  with the offering of the
limited partnership units of CDF V.

     PLAII has entered  into an  agreement  with PLI  whereby  PLI will  provide
management  services to the  Partnership  in connection  with the operations and
administration  of CDF V. In consideration for the services and activities to be
performed  by PLI pursuant to this  agreement,  PLAII pays PLI fees in an amount
equal to: Three percent of CDF V's cumulative  gross revenues plus the lesser of
three  percent of the  purchase  price of  equipment  acquired by and  financing
provided  to  businesses  by CDF V or  100% of the net  cash  attributed  to the
acquisition  fee which has been  distributed to PLAII plus 100% of all other net
cash  from  operations  of the  Partnership.  Management  fees paid to PLI equal
$759,627 and $886,975 for the year ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

               PHOENIX LEASING ASSOCIATES II, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

                    NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS

                                  JUNE 30, 1996


Note 1.       Organization:

     Phoenix Leasing  Associates II, Inc.,  (the Company),  was formed under the
laws of Nevada on June 14, 1990. The Company has a June 30 fiscal year-end.  The
Company is a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Phoenix Leasing  Incorporated  (PLI), a
California  corporation,  and was  originally  formed  to serve  as the  general
partner of Phoenix Leasing Cash  Distribution Fund V, L.P. (CDF V), a California
limited partnership.

     On August 17, 1990, the Company  organized  Phoenix  Leasing  Associates II
L.P., a California limited  partnership  (PLAIILP) to replace the Company as the
general  partner in CDF V. The  limited  partner of PLAIILP is Lease  Management
Associates,  Inc., a Nevada corporation controlled by an officer of the Company,
who also owns the  parent  company  of PLI.  As the  general  partner  of CDF V,
PLAIILP earns  acquisition and management fees and receives the profits,  losses
and distributions which are to be allocated to the Company (Note 5). The Company
is the  general  partner of PLAIILP  and, as of June 30, 1996 and 1995 has a 50%
ownership  interest.  This ownership interest is subject to change in accordance
with the  PLAIILP  Partnership  Agreement.  Profits,  losses  and  distributions
attributable  to  acquisition  fees paid to  PLAIILP by CDF V are  allocated  in
proportion to the partners' ownership interests.  All other profits,  losses and
distributions are allocated to the Company.  The financial statements as of June
30, 1996 and 1995 are presented on a consolidated basis as discussed in Note 2.

Note 2.       Principles of Consolidation:

     The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 1996 and 1995, include
the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary,  PLAIILP, over which the company
exerts significant control and influence.  All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions  have been eliminated in  consolidation.  The minority interest
represents the limited partner's interest in PLAIILP.

     The Company  records  its  investment  in CDF V under the equity  method of
accounting.  As general  partner,  the Company has  complete  authority  in, and
responsibility  for, the overall management and control of CDF V, which includes
responsibility  for  supervising  CDF  V's  acquisition,   leasing,  remarketing
activities and its sale of equipment.

Note 3.       Use of Estimates:

     The preparation of consolidated balance sheets in conformity with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
balance sheets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 4.       Notes Receivable from Affiliate:

     PLI, the sole shareholder of the Company, as of June 30, 1996 and 1995, has
issued demand promissory notes to the Company totaling $4,000,000.  There are no
restrictions  or covenants  associated  with this note which would  preclude the
Company from receiving the principal or interest  amounts under the terms of the
notes.  The notes  bear  interest  at a rate equal to the lesser of 10% or prime
rate plus 1%, as determined by Citibank,  N.A., New York, New York.  Interest is
payable by PLI on the first business day of each calendar quarter. The principal
amount is due and payable upon demand by the Company.

Note 5.       Income Taxes:

     The Company's income or loss for tax reporting  purposes is included in the
consolidated  and combined tax returns  filed by Phoenix  American  Incorporated
(PAI),  an  affiliated  Nevada  corporation.  These  returns are prepared on the
accrual basis of accounting.  In accordance with a Tax Sharing Agreement between
the Company and PAI, PAI has assumed all tax  liabilities  and benefits  arising
from the Company's income or loss.

     Effective  July 1,  1993,  the  Company  adopted  "Statement  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards  No. 109 -  Accounting  for Income  Taxes" (FAS 109).  The
Company  computes  taxes as if it was a stand alone  company.  The resulting tax
provisions of $234,305 and $9,254,  as of June 30, 1996 and 1995,  respectively,
were transferred to PAI.

Note 6.       Compensation and Fees:

     PLAIILP  receives  acquisition  fees equal to three percent of the purchase
price of assets  acquired or financed by CDF V in connection  with the analysis,
selection and acquisition or financing of assets, and the continuing analysis of
the overall portfolio of the CDF V's assets,  and management fees equal to three
